“the baby boomer generation is taking this nation down,”
Oh please. I wish I had the time today to explain to you how ridiculous this is but I think the comment posted earlier about Gen-Y speaks volumes.You forget- baby boomers not only had their own share of wars, but they made it possible for you to sit here today and whine about them. We really need to stop pointing fingers at everyone else. It’s getting stoopid.Really really stoopid. Maybe you guys should just go out and round up all the baby boomers and push them off a cliff. Say buhbye to grandma, gramps, mom, dad,, the aunts and uncles. Kick all the Vietnam Vets off too while you’re at it. Really- what a load of crap.

“they were coddled by the WWII generation who lived through the depression and the war.”
From the very funny book by Nick Adams called ‘Making Friends With Black People’, on Tom Brokaw and his Greatest Generation…
“They wouldn’t share a water fountain with me and they’re the ‘greatest generation’?”
I bought $688. worth of stamps last year. Maybe heavy users could continue getting 6-day delivery.
I miss the USPS. Canada Post is horrifically slow (although in general public services here work well).
Blowfish, I also had a cat with a UTI. Fortunately we caught it in time. He lived for 17 years after that, so hopefully, yours will too.
Really going now.
